Rowe Furniture, Inc. Including On-Site Leased Workers From Penske 
Logistics Elliston, VA; Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility To 
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Negative Determination 
Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Alternative Trade Adjustment 
Assistance

    In accordance with section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 
2273), and section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as 
amended, the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility 
to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative Trade 
Adjustment Assistance on July 25, 2006, applicable to workers of Rowe 
Furniture, Inc., Elliston, Virginia. The notice was published in the 
Federal Register on August 14, 2006 (71 FR 46518).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged 
in the production of upholstered living room furniture.
    New information shows that leased workers of Penske Logistics were 
employed on-site at the Elliston, Virginia location of Rowe Furniture. 
The Department has determined that these workers were sufficiently 
under the control of the subject firm to be considered leased workers.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include leased workers of Penske Logistics working on-
site at the Elliston, Virginia location of the subject firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers employed at Rowe Furniture, Inc., Elliston, Virginia who were 
adversely affected by increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-59,649 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Rowe Furniture, Inc., including on-site leased 
workers from Penske Logistics, Elliston, Virginia, who became 
totally or partially separated from employment on or after June 28, 
2005, through July 25, 2008, are eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.'' I further 
determine that all workers of Rowe Furniture, Inc., Elliston, 
Virginia are denied eligibility to apply for alternative trade 
adjustment assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 8th day of April 2008.
Richard Church,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
